A True short story
by Terry in____a true story___.
shortly after the incident, i drove back along the pacific coast in a euphoric daze of confusion, tears, and exhilaration; there was no place for it to go inside my head.
i pulled over on the shoulder of the road and sat in stunned silence.

You just know that poor kid is a virgin, and he's going to remain one for a LONG time if he continues to allow Mommy to dress him like that.
Hey Kid: Ditch the bible thumping and cheap JC Penney suit, get some contacts, join a Gold's Gym, hit Hollister or PACSUN in the mall, and then MAYBE you'll be able to score - with an actual girl!!
Totally cringe-worthy piece of cult propaganda trash!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - WT is totally ripping off Scientology with these videos.
Listen to this sh*t, cheery, upbeat, bright songs about the Last / End / Final Days. That chorus clapping at the end, starting at 2:40 - that's total Scientology style. These retards can't even come up with their own tunes! SAD.
WT Corp put in offices down in Clearwater, Florida. Think that's a coincidence? That's central studio production for Scientology, and hence they are bumming off Scientology's "hip" "New-Agey" vibe. Blatant rip-off. I could puke, I really could!!!!

i do not condone any crime.

So what you're saying, is that you're a closeted, celibate, homosexual wanna-be JW, who frequents Hookah Bars and hallucinates that the shadows on the moon are in fact moving, and that someday you will be so wealthy you will purchase this website domain from Simon and cast off all of the e-vile mentally diseased apostates, leaving only yourself and your other tight-pants wearing friends to feed each other grapes and pet panda forever?
Wheh! Good luck with that sh*t, buddy!

I totally feel for you. I experienced the same, first with my father, then mother, than grandmother. JW's couldn't give 2 sh*ts about ailing members. ZILCH. Here is my story (re-posted) as it really shows the heartlessness my family was exposed to. Not trying to hijack your thread either, merely add my own to it. Hope your mother is able to beat that dreaded cancer.
REPOST:
Back in 2007, my mother finally had her liver transplant. She needed one due to a genetic disorder (Alpha-1, or A1AD). She never drank or did drugs in her life. She was in her early 50's. She got her liver, but had several complications which stretched out about 3 months. Unfortunately, she became terminal. I am an only child, my father died 8 years previously. I had to travel 250 miles each way to the UVa Medical Center (known for their bloodless tranplants) from Pennsylvania. The entire experience was pure hell on me and my family. 99 out of 100 people make it through the transplant and home. My mother was in the unfortunate 1% who don't make it.
A few days before her passing, she was still awake and with it. I knew the end was near, as I was power of attorney and making several medical descisions. I was away from my wife and son, 250 miles away at a huge medical center. I was sitting alone one evening in my car in the parking garage. I was alone, scared for my mother, and at one of the lowest points in my life. My mother was a JW for 25 years. Never been marked, reproved, DF'd, always in good standing. Got in decent hours, but that dropped as her health dropped. She was somewhat inactive for about the previous 5 years or so, but still known. I was never baptized, but obviously recognized as an approved associate, never bad association. I never did anything to gain that title.
I decided to call an Elder, the PO it turned out of our congregation. It was about 6-7:00 at night. One of his children answered, and when I asked for this Elder, he was put on. He explained they were in the middle of supper. I explained the situation to him. He said, "I'm sorry to hear about this situation Wing Commander, but what would you like ME to do about it?" I was like, "Uh...well my mother and I could use some spiritual support at this time, etc, etc......" I couldn't believe I actually had to explain this to him. Do you know what this guy, whom I thought was a nice fellow by the way (never had a problem with him until this point) actually said to me? He said he'd have to look up the names of the LOCAL congregation Elders down in Virginia, and that THEY could come and shephard me and my dying mother. He'd "get back to me." He then promptly said goodbye and hung up. By the way, he offered up NO scriptures, no spiritual support at all on the phone - NONE.....and this guy is an Elder! I sat there in my car staring at my cell phone with my jaw about on my lap, alone at 7:00 at night, mother dying in the hospital across from me, and I just lost it - a grown man of 27, started to flat out BAWL in his car. It's like I snapped.....I couldn't believe how my mother and I had just been disregarded. What made the situation worse, is that I was informed by my mom's "Worldly" coworkers here in PA that they were taking 2 days off to come down in a van and visit with my terminal mother, cheer her up and say their goodbye's before her passing. I was floored by their insistance, and very grateful, and yet now here I was being handed a steaming hot pile of crap by a JW Elder that I actually trusted, a family man. And did he ever get back to me? - NO. I actually had to call him. He also didn't attend my mother's funeral or even call or send a card.
This is just one of the MANY fine examples of what the JW's call "Christian Love" that they pile upon their flock. I could go on and on with what I've lived and experienced while growing up in the JW religion. I wonder, how does YHWH God and Christ Jesus view such actions?? Are they proud to have Their names rubber-stamped by the Governing Body upon this religion?????
So many of my wife's (all non-JW's) as well as my own extended family (non-JWs) showed me and my family such love, hospitality, and warmth in my deepest hour of need. Even my mother's neighbours helped out around her house while she was in the hospital or offered me their services. Where were the JW friends of her and I that I grew up with for the past 25 years??? They were no where to be found!!!! None, NO ONE.
This identical treatment occured when my father died in 1999, my mother and I were left to fend for ourselves. That was my mom's wake-up call.
What of the "fine shephard" who couldn't be bothered to barely talk to me on the phone that evening back in 2007? Why, he was killed in a freak construction accident almost exactly a year later. I, unlike HIM, actually attended his "Memorial Service" out of respect for him and his family. It was the largest funeral I ever attended in my life, with about 1,000 people showing up due to him owning a business and JW's and Non-JW's attended. It was a disgusting and hypocritical funeral talk, as it spoke him playing SPORTS in high school, something all of us JW's are forbidden from doing, being as it brings undue attention and glory to the individual. Guess it was ok for him to do it though, huh? Of course it ended with an infomercial for the WT society of course. Several friends of mine who did work on job sites with his company and attended said it was the most awkward and worst funeral they ever attended.
I was tempted to get up in front of everyone and give my above "experience" with him, but decided against it. In the end, he was dead and not worth the effort. I feel I am the bigger man then him for attending his funeral even though he didn't attend my mother's.
By their love you will know them, indeed.

Is the JW Broadcasting having good results for the Org?
by thewalker inwhen speaking with brothers, i can see they really like the jw.org site more than magazines and books.
i can imagine them publishing more and more articles and news as it's more dynamic and creates a sense of alert with brothers looking for new articles to read instead of the boring monthly magazines.. but when it comes to the jw broadcasting, it's something different.
even elders admit they aren't watching the monthly broadcastings.

Dont Give Them More Power Than They Deserve
by Tech49 ina new montra that was recently adopted by the wife and i is this:.
dont give them more power than they deserve.. here's why i say that, and i point this to those of you still in the congregation, still trying to decide what you want to do.. recently, our family had a little family reunion gathering of sorts, and we were in the company of some extended family that were either df or da, to varying degrees.
we made it very clear, to any and all in attendance, that we wanted to be respectful and kind, despite any previous perceptions about our "status".... and that our feelings on a lot of things had "softened", and "changed" over the last 2 years.. i am being purposefully slightly vague, but i think you get the point.

So let me get this straight: They don't have time to call the police to report child molesters, but they have time to call you up about a private, family party, to try and berate and guilt you into - what, exactly?
Those Elders are petty douchebags who are trying to impose some sort of police state mentality among their subservient flock. Since when are THEY the "Masters of your faith"? Since never.
Their behaviour about a private family function, is quite frankly appalling. I'd point blank ask them who the hell they think they are calling you up about ANY of it? Freakin' asshats!

Let me be try and be as blunt as I possibly can here:
Since the events of 9/11, the USS Cole Bombing, the bombing of the US embassy in Kenya, the "Death to America" chants from Iran, the Palestinians (and Islam as a whole) wanting to kill every Jew (and infidel) on earth, the Paris attacks, Bali, Mali, Al Qeada, ISIL, beheadings of innocents, raping of women and children, women and children being sold as slaves and property, and the list goes on and on........
I quite frankly, don't give a flying f*ck about that backwards, mid-evil, f*cked up cult known as "Islam". So despised is "the religion of peace" now, that even USA and Europe are unwilling to take refugees from Syria who are fleeing - who? Other Muslims. Shove that religion in the annals of barbaric history past. -

If they only had a brain
by Sour Grapes inlast sunday i visited a hall to see a friend.
the brother giving the talk spent the first 20 minutes talking about how bad the world is and then the next 10 minutes he pointed out how god's kingdom is the answer.
one thing he mentioned is all of the millions of starving children in the world and how the money that we spend on just a few bombs that are dropped in the wars could feed thousands of children.

Ha! The WT's mantra of charity is:
"It is better to receive than to give. So give us all of your money, and then bend over so we can give you all a royal screwing. Agape Love, The Governing Body"
